Support Us The Byzantine Empire An outline history Serious overcrowding in the Greek homelands in the eighth century BC led several city-states to attempt to establish trading colonies to the east and to the west throughout the Mediterranean basin. Thus it happened that, in the year 667 BC, one Byzas of Megara, after consulting the oracle of Apollo at Delphi, founded a settlement which became known as Byzantium at the entrance of the Black Sea. The city state of Megara functioned as a sponsor to this settlement. The location chosen proved to be extremely advantageous for purposes of trade as it was approachable by water from both the Mediterranean and Black Seas and by land from both Europe and Asia Minor. The site was also favourable for defence in that there was only a limited landward perimeter and, if Byzantium were to come under attack, it could hope for relief from the seas. As the sway of the kingdom of Macedon expanded in the second half of the fourth century BC under the leadership of Philip II (382-336 BC) and of his son Alexander the Great (356-323 BC) Byzantium was brought within its orbit. After the death of Alexander the Macedonian Empire decayed but Macedonian Greek influence was continued within the several kingdoms that powerful Macedonian generals established on the ruins of Alexander's Empire.

City map Lake Ohrid History of Ohrid Churches and Monasteries ... Embassy of Local Democracy SAMUEL'S EMPIRE In 969 a conflict between the Byzantine Empire and the state of Kiev occurred. During the most severe conflicts between the Bulgarians, Byzantine and Russians, the Bulgarian Czar Peter died. His death in Macedonia was used as an excuse to start-up for a liberation resurrection. From the very beginning of the uprising incited by the sons of a Slav prince Nikola: David, Moses, Aaron and Samuel, the town of Ohrid and its surroundings were in the very centre of the tumults. The uprising started in 969 and quickly stretched out throughout the territory of the former "Sklavinia" (province) Berzitia. This territory and other neighbouring regions were freed from the Bulgarian rule. The former Macedonian "sclavinias" (provinces) were united into a Macedonian Slavic state known as Samuel's Empire. Although still under the supreme rule of the Byzantine emperor, in the period from 971 to 976 princes David, Aaron, Moses and Samuel managed to gain international recognition for their state. Later, as a monarch, Samuel managed to develop a large army and well-trained soldiers so that by the end of X century the Macedonian state (Thessalonika excluded) was also covering the territories of Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece, Albania and Croatia. After obtaining the Pope's blessing, Samuel promoted the Macedonian Church to the rank of a patriarchate. Ohrid then became the ecclesiastical and czaristic centre of the Macedonian State and grew into a true medieval metropolis. The town consisted of two territorially adjoining parts: the fortress, i.e., acropolis, and lower town. These two sections formed the entire urban dwelling at that time known as polis.

It was named after Byzantium, which Emperor Constantine I rebuilt ( A.D. 330) as Constantinople and made the capital of the entire Roman Empire. Although not foreseen at the time, a division into Eastern and Western empires became permanent after the accession (395) of Honorius in the West and Arcadius in the East. Throughout its existence the Byzantine Empire was subject to important changes in its boundaries. The core of the empire consisted of the Balkan Peninsula (i.e., Thrace, Macedonia, Epirus, Greece proper, the Greek isles, and Illyria) and of Asia Minor (present-day Turkey). The empire combined Roman political tradition, Hellenic culture, and Christian beliefs. Greek was the prevalent language, but Latin long continued in official use. See the table entitled Rulers of the Byzantine Empire for a list of all the Byzantine emperors and the years they reigned.

In all aspects the Byzantine Empire, having lost its claim to universality, became a Greek monarchy, though Constantinople still remained the center of both Greek and Roman civilization. Compared with its intellectuals, artists, writers, and artisans, those of Western Europe were crude and barbarous, though sometimes more vigorous and original.

They were ably assisted by assistant curator Stephen Zwirn and curatorial assistant Ginger Crockett. Joseph Mills took the photographs that were such an essential part of the exhibit, and the installation was skillfully overseen by Christopher Harrison and Suzanne Mercury. As a new initiative Dumbarton Oaks has decided to transfer the exhibit to an online format to make it more widely accessible. Clarence Foules, Chris Dunham, and Lauren Henkin of the Publications Department were responsible for the transformation of the exhibit into electronic form. Coinage of the Byzantine Empire offers insights into the numismatic holdings at Dumbarton Oaks that, with the exception of some spectacular late Roman gold and silver medallions, are only rarely on public display. As is well known, coins are difficult to exhibit because of their small size. A total of 118 gold, silver, and bronze coins were selected for display in three vitrines.

Although its capital had been moved from Rome in the Latin West to Constantinople in the Greek East, the Byzantine Empire regarded itself as a continuation of the Roman Empire, differing from it only in being Christian in religion and Greek in speech. No elements in its coinage, however, apart from the use of Latin in its inscriptions, are earlier than the 4th century A.D.

The Byzantine Period In AD 313 the Roman emperor Constantine had a vision: he saw a cross in the sky, which made him convert to Christianity and as a consequence the Roman persecutions of Christians stopped. After his death it became the official religion. Constantine decided to found a new Rome, and in AD 324 he moved the capital to the East, to the Greek city Byzantium on the Bosporus. He named the city Constantinople after himself. The empire was still Rome, though, and the inhabitants called themselves Romans or Romei in Greek. The Byzantine, or East Roman, Empire covered today's Balkan Peninsula, plus western Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel, Lebanon, Cyprus, Egypt and east Libya. Most people spoke Greek, but other languages such as Latin, Armenian and Coptic were also spoken. There was a close relationship between the emperor and the church, and it was during the Byzantine period that many standards were set for the Orthodox Church. Most land was owned by the emperor and the church, and the empires major economical factor was agriculture but also trade. In the 5th and 6th century the Byzantine armies had to fight both the invading Huns and Goths, but managed to secure the Empire.

HOME TIME AND SPACE PREHISTORY MESOPOTAMIA ... The Bubonic Plague The Byzantine Empire In 330, Constantine moved his capital from Rome to the Greek city of Byzantium. He wanted the capital of his empire to be safe from barbarian invasion. Constantine renamed the city Constantinople, but we refer to the civilizatio n centered in Constantinople as the Byzantine Empire. The Byzantine Empire began to look less like the Roman Empire as the years passed. The empire covered Greece, the Balkans, Asia Minor, Syria, and Egypt. By the seventh century, Greek had completely replaced Latin as the language of the empire. The Byzantine emperors still thought of themselves as the successors of Caesar Augustus, but over the years Roman influence gradually disappeared. Seljuk Turks began moving into the Byzantine Empire from Central Asia in the eleventh century. The Turks had recently become Muslims, and the Byzantine emperor feared they would soon overpower his Christian empire. He asked the leader of the Christian church-the Pope-to assist in a holy war against the Turks. In 1095, Pope Urban II launched the first of many Crusades, or "wars of the cross." Soldiers from western Europe left their homes to free the Byzantine Empire of the "unbelievers." This was the first time many Europeans left their homes. Their exposure to new and different cultures was a factor that led to the Renaissance.

Alexandria: The Byzantine Period It is with the ascension of the Roman emperor Constantine With so much emphasis on Constantinople, and the fact that much of the Egyptian grain production was being shipped there, Alexandria began to slip from its position at the center of the Mediterranean world. Meanwhile the old Roman Empire crumbled under barbarian invasions and internal conflict, and the Byzantine Empire rose in its place. The center of the world moved to Constantinople, which under the Byzantines became a center for art, science, and religious and secular learning. Alexandria continued to influence the world, only more subtly now. In 529 the emperor Justinian closed the Academy of Athens, forbidding the teaching of what he called "pagan philosophy", yet Alexandria's schools remained open, teaching Atristotelian and Platonic philosophy well into the eighth century.

A Century of Prosopography by James Tuck (Royal Holloway, University of London) (based on a text written for an exhibition at the British Academy, September 2000) The concept for a prosopography of the Roman Empire was probably first conceived by Christian Matthias Theodor Mommsen Professor A.H.M. Jones and two of his pupils, John Morris and John Martindale in the 1950s. The continuation of Mommsen's work was a truly international affair. The Germans generously gave permission for Mommsen's original notes to be used and these were collected personally by John Morris having to pass through 'Checkpoint Charlie'. It is a fitting testament to both humanity and the academic world that even at the height of the Cold War such international co-operation could continue. Since the task was so huge, it was agreed to divide the work between the
